Needed to add --no-check-certificate to the wget command. Otherwise, superb.

wget is not installed by default with cygwin, meaning this needs to be bootstrapped with a manual and non-programmatic installation.

wget, lynx, setup-x86.exe, setup-x86_64.exe are not recognized as internal or external commands. Now what? What is the first thing i should do after installing cygwin ? I'm super confused about all this steps. Any advice?
